We have a 2013 Prius with the same battery. There are 2 battery locations in the Prius a 12 volt in the right rear quarter panel this gets everything going. The drive battery is behind the rear seat and under storage. Currently we have 110,000 miles on vehicle. Our first Prius had 275,000 when we traded it in and replaced 12 v battery once.I too left the lights on and drained the battery it will take more than 10-15 min to restore 12v battery good luck. The drive batteries I believe are warranted for 100,000 miles I hope.

Parked it in our garage & after about 1/2 hour tried to start it & couldn't. When I try to start it, the battery light comes on & off too quickly for me to see how many bars. We're again getting the car jumped on Fri morn, & then driving to Philips Toyota, Leesburg, (in separate cars) for a scheduled 25,000 mile check up. Will battery need replacement or will sustained, highway driving (Fenney to Leesburg ) rejuvenate it? How long does a 2016 Prius battery last ? What are indicators it is dying? Thanks!
